Haunted Trousers

Jerrold was convinced
a ghost haunted his corduroy trousers.Every
time he put them on something strange would happen.They would gyrate, pulsate, and sometimes
even percolate.A little investigation
revealed that the specter either inhabited the pants only at the time Jerrold
was wearing them or, for whatever reason, chose to lie dormant inside the said
pants until the time came every morning for Jerrold to slip them on.We haven’t yet addressed the grotesque sounds
emanating from Jerrold’s pelvic area, leading to the suspicion that more than
one ghost haunted the corduroys.One day
by happenstance our protagonist discovered that his denim jeans were likewise
haunted, as were his khaki cargo pants and the nice polyester slacks he bought from Sears the other day.Sometimes a residue or stain would be left behind, as if somehow the spiritual
realm crossed over into the physical.What
these ghosts want is not clear, so Jerrold recently hired a paranormal specialist to launch a further investigation.
